bad idea right?
"The Soundtrack of Your LifeOpen in new Window. | Day 28
"bad idea right?" by Olivia Rodrigo


I really like Olivia Rodrigo's music. At first when she was a Disney kid I didn't think much of her, but the way she really struck out on her own with her first album Sour was revelatory... and now her second album Guts is proving that it's not just a one-off. She's managing to bring an older, adult perspective (ironic, considering she's only 21) to pop music and I love the fact that the subject matter of her songs and lyrics don't hold anything back. Lyrics from this song like, "I only see him as a friend / (biggest lie I've ever said)" and "I only see him as a friend / I tripped and fell into his bed" are great turns of phrase that I think a lot of people can really relate to.

If she's only 21 and already releasing music that's this catchy and this sophisticated, I'm really excited to see where her career goes from here.
